Greetings to all you readers and food lovers out there. The Cupboard Cook has been hibernating but the tummy started growling so the Cook is awake, out of the deep coma, and ready for some good eats. The sad thing is that the Cook has missed the annual trek to the south, as all of the normal stops and friends along the way have been recalled back into doing their respective jobs around the globe. One can never predict what worldly events will crop up. The Cook was greatly anticipating the Gator Sarny that awakens the Cook’s spirit and soul.
